Apparent temperature formula (Australian BoM). High humidity feels hotter; wind feels cooler.

How the calculation works

Feels-like temperature combines temperature, humidity and wind. In heat with high humidity sweat evaporates less, so it feels hotter; wind helps cool down.

Frequently asked questions

Why does it feel hotter with high humidity?

Because sweat evaporates more slowly, making it harder for the body to cool down.
